    On this channel we like to do a lot of dogfighting most videos are some sort of dogfight between 2 different aircraft as we explore their different capabilities. From time to time I like to dabble in Virtual Reality, I think VR is a great new technology and I love to show that stuff off for the channel from time to time.
    If you prefer more up close and personal dogfights consider the IL-2 Sturmovik: Great Battle series and experience intense WWII aerial combat over famous battlefields such as Stalingrad, Moscow, Rhineland and Normandy. Fight in and against Russian, American, German, British warbirds such as the P-51 Mustang, P-47 Thunderbolt, Bf-109, FW-190, Spitfire, Hurricane and rugged IL-2 Sturmovik attack plane. You can also fly legendary SPADS, Fokkers and Camels in WWI dogfights over the trenches of WWI and discover your inner Red Baron! And all of this can be experienced in jaw dropping virtual reality!
    If you enjoy war thunder or Microsoft flight simulator 2020, consider getting yourself into Digital Combat Simulator by Eagle Dynamics, the Combat side of Aviation with the BVR and Dogfights really provides a different and interesting perspective on aviation. You can fly all kinds of combat aircraft including the F-16, F-15, F-14, JF-17, Su-27, Mig-29, Mirage and the F-18 Hornet along with many other aircraft and helicopters like the Ka-50 and Mi-8.

    You guys seemed to really enjoy the bandit unknown fights we did last time, so here we are using the tomcat and taking on everything that is thrown at us, the Tomcat once again proves why its such a dominant dogfighting platform. Big thank you to Wombat for flying this video for us and I hope you guys enjoyed.

    Bandit unknown is really interesting, and I would love to see a 2v2 with 2-4 different airframes.
    Could you do some new videos on the Phoenix and how to fight from a full loadout to a potential merge? I think it would be interesting to see how we go into battle with full fuel and weapons and then are forced to deal with a potentially complex situation where the end result isn’t guaranteed. I know it makes for more difficult videos and if it’s not what you like to make then it’s probably a bad idea, but it’s probably more realistic in terms of what we face on full scale war servers.

    I am wondering if you had entered the merge (in the third round) at or closer to Max Corner if you would have been better able to set the tone of the engagement. I have a feeling that, having lost the first round in the J-15, once he saw your wings in full sweep he adjusted his game plan accordingly.
    I am also wondering if you had switched to manual, dropped flaps and squatted the jet over the top, maybe you could have forced a two circle and relied on the engines to get you back up to corner and beat him around the circle
    ...
    I was both happy and sad to see you win, and lose, in that VF-143 jet...

    Tomcat is a chungus but she got that surface area and that thrust.

    GS, I'm curious about something specific in the third fight: At 12:15, after the Flanker had taken his gunshot and no longer had his nose pointed at you, I thought you might continue rate-fighting the Flanker by maintaining the left-hand turn. Yet in actuality I saw you respond by reversing your turn direction to try going into a one-circle fight, which you had earlier commented was not the Tomcat's nor your strongpoint against the likes of a Flanker.
    My question is, in hindsight(and assuming you hadn't lost an engine seconds later), do you think you would have stood a better chance of reversing that fight in your favor if you had stayed in the rate fight at that specific moment?

      I think GS was too slow to have any chance of success in the 2 circle, the flanker would have regained enough energy to thoroughly screw GS in the 2 circle with it better low speed performance. By going into the 1 circle gs had the opportunity to try and control the fight and have it neutralised giving him another chance to get into the 2 circle with more speed later on giving him better odds of winning

    Without seeing the paint job and insignia on the wings how can you tell the difference between an Su-33 and J-15 at first glance? They look virtually identical (even though they're totally different animals under the skin).

    • @lemax6865
      @lemax6865 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's the thing, he *did* see the paintjob. The Flanker-d uses the Russian naval paintjob which has a blue pattern on the top, but the Chinese paint their J-15 a flat gray. He recognised the J-15 on the merge, when he got a close look at it. As for the Flanker later in the video, it's an Su-27, which doesn't have canards.
